Gonstead Chiropractic System

At Foothills Chiropractic, Dr. Mark DeBrincat provides the most effective and least invasive method of adjustment, the Gonstead System of adjusting.

THE DOC

Dr. Clarence S. Gonstead became a chiropractor in 1923 after he personal received incredible results from a very painful and crippling episode of rheumatoid arthritis. He went on to become one of the most revered icons of the chiropractic profession. Dr. Gonstead created a system of analysis to enable a doctor to precisely locate the cause of the problem using five specific criteria and then he created a system that provided the most precise methods of correcting the problem.

BACKGROUND

Dr. Gonstead was able to accomplish this massive restructuring of the methods of chiropractic analysis and adjusting because he was a mechanical engineer and he applied his knowledge and background of engineering to the management of the human spine. His work has enabled chiropractic to grow in flourish into one of the fastest growing holistic methods of healing in the world today.

RESULTS

Since the 1960's Doctors of Chiropractic that utilize the Gonstead System have clinically noticed some very profound results. It is very well known that a misaligned vertebra causes dysfunction of the nerves that exit the spine and compression of these nerves produces the back pain that is so common in our society today. However, those same nerves also supply nerve function to every single organ and system of the human body. Gonstead Doctors have clinically found that by using this system they are able to create more specific adjustments which will provide quicker, more permanent, decompression the vital spinal nerves. These doctors notice more visceral (organ) changes than ever seen before. Some of the major clinical findings that have been noticed are:

  2. Becoming more fertile and being able to conceive after being told you couldn't
  3. Dramatic increase in energy levels
  4. Cessation of chronic migraines and no need for long term drug therapy
  5. Decrease in muscle pain and elimination of pain pills after decades of use
  6. Improved digestion; alleviation of constipation
  7. Decrease blood pressure
  8. Improved cognitive function

  10. Enhanced immune function
    …any many more

It is important to realize that as chiropractors we do not treat any disease or any of the above mentioned conditions. Our job is to be your body's electrician and find the nerves that have been chocked, compressed or simply turned off. We work to increase nerve function to allow your brain to communicate to its parts and your body does all the healing. We never underestimate the healing capabilities of your body and we work only to improve its ability to heal itself.

LOGICAL

No extensive tests. No drug therapy. No needles or scalpels. It is simply removing pressure from impinged nerves to allow your body to use its own inborn potential to heal.

That's it.Chiropractic = Simple
